Relativistic transients such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), jetted tidal disruption events, luminous fast blue optical transients, and fast X-ray transients, represent the brightest explosions in the Universe and serve dual roles as…

Study of radio supernovae over the past 25 years includes two dozen detected objects and more than 100 upper limits. From this work it is possible to identify classes of radio properties, demonstrate conformance to and deviations from…

The propagation of radio emission in pulsar magnetospheres is discussed. We follow a kinematics model in order to derive dispersion relations for electromagnetic oscillations and transversal waves, propagating in a cold moving plasma. We…
